Chapter 49
Fang Mo knew that the matter with Yang Yi wasn't as simple as it seemed, but she didn't expect to receive a call from her mother that same evening after returning home.
This time, Fang Mo didn't choose to give the cold treatment. Instead, she answered the phone normally. However, as soon as she said hello, her mother's voice came rushing through the line.
"Xiao Mo, I heard from your brother that you're no longer in Yuanshi? And you've become the boss of a company? Driving cars worth tens of millions?"
"I always knew you would make something of yourself. But you're a girl, all alone out there. Without family support, you'll sooner or later be taken advantage of. Your brother may not excel academically, but he's quite clever."
"He can help you with things, give you advice, run errands. How can outsiders compare to blood relatives?"
At first, Fang Fang didn't believe it when she received her son's call and heard his description.
She knew her daughter very well. Even though she was somewhat clever and managed to get into a good university, Fang Mo had no capital or connections. How could she become a big boss, driving luxurious cars, just a few years after graduation?
Except for her striking resemblance to her father.
Not to boast, but Fang Fang was considered the most beautiful woman in the village back in the day. However, she ended up marrying Fang Zhiguo, a blockhead who couldn't earn money or please others.
After several years without getting pregnant, her mother-in-law, an unbearable old woman, became even more unbearable. Unable to endure any longer, Fang Fang ultimately chose to divorce.
In those days, it was a tremendous event, but because Fang Fang was indeed quite good-looking, she quickly caught the attention of a small business owner who ran a hardware store, a widower with no children. He was also sociable.
They hit it off, and the following year, Fang Fang gave birth to their precious son, securing her position.
However, at this point, her firstborn daughter became a bit of a nuisance. But her current husband was a businessman who valued reputation, so it wouldn't be good if they really neglected Fang Mo. Fang Fang simply treated her casually, as an act of charity and accumulating good deeds.
She never expected that her daughter would achieve such remarkable success!
Fang Fang didn't care about how Fang Mo had achieved her current status. She only knew that even a small leak from Fang Mo's fingers could lift their entire family beyond their social class.
Of course, while she may have had those thoughts, Fang Fang also knew that Fang Mo was no longer the easily controlled young girl from before. She had a strong will.
If they were to directly pressure her, things would surely turn out badly. They would, at best, maintain their current lifestyle, but Yang Yi would have cut off a promising path!
Therefore, at this moment, they must praise Fang Mo, make her understand that outsiders can't be relied upon, and that only blood relatives are the ones to lean on.
"Are you finished talking?"
As Fang Mo listened to her mother's incessant rambling, not a trace of emotion flickered on her face. Her mother thought she was hiding it well, but how could Fang Mo be fooled by such ridiculous and shameless thoughts?
Such laughable and shameless ideas.
"What's wrong, Xiao Mo? Your mother is only doing this for your own good. You should..."
